A Contest to Say ‘Thank You’

June 4, 2020 By Cindy Sherwood

Isn’t this great? It’s one of the entries we’ve received for our “Artful Thanks” contest. Lucy, a first-grader from King George County, shared this wonderful artwork with us.

We love drawings and would like to see many more pictures, but that’s not all! Kids may choose the art form of their choice to express their thanks to Virginia’s essential workers. A story or poem… a collage or sculpture… a video or photo… there are so many ways kids can show their gratitude.

Entries aren’t due until June 30, so kids have lots of time to work on their creations. We’ll continue sharing entries, and later in the summer our judges will award two $25 Amazon gift cards in each of two categories: kindergarten through second grade and third through fifth grade.

Please share with anyone you know who has creative (and grateful) children.  Click here for more details on how to submit.

Make sure you keep up with all our the Arts for Learning news by signing up for our mailing list.

In Their Own Words: IDEAL Residency Students

Sometimes we can learn the most about the impact of a program that we offer directly from the students we serve. So we wanted to share comments from some of the students who participated in our IDEAL (Intentional Designs of Expression in Artistic Languages) residency this spring. Remarks from students at Virginia Beach’s College Park […]
